It’s been 58 years since Wales participated at a World Cup, now they’re on the brink og qualifying for Qatar 2022 but they could barely have a more motivated team standing in their way.
Ukraine were excellent at Hampden on Wednesday night turning in a performance that was as much about precision at it was about passion.
Fears that they would be rusty, with several members of the squad missing out on competititve football since Russia’s invasion of their country, were unfounded as they outclassed the Scots at a packed Hampden Park. Zinchenko and Yarmalenko were excellent going forward and this experienced Ukrainian squad has the quality to hurt Wales in Cardiff tonight.
The bookies can barely split the sides when it comes to qualifying with Wales to 19/20 and the visitors at 4/5. Over the 90 minutes Ukraine are 13/8 with the Welsh at 15/8.
Wales manager Rob Page has a fully fit squad to choose from and the main danger will of course be 5-time Champions League winner Gareth Bale. One thing missing from Bale’s glittering career is an appearance the World Cup finals and he’s 15/8 to lead the way for the Welsh by adding to his 38 international goals tonight.
Both teams have scored in 10 of Ukraine’s last 13 full internationals (plus their three warm-up friendlies against club sides). It’s a similar story for Wales with seven of their last nine seing both sides find the net. BTTS is even money and in game where there’s little to choose between the sides it could be the best bet. Over 2.5 Goals also appeals at a generous looking 7/5.
This week’s Nations League games have already seen Croatia, France, Republic of Ireland and England beaten against the odds so tread carefully.
If you’re looking for a potential upset today then Czech Republic (16/5) at home to Spain, Switzerland (15/4) at Portugal and Norway (2/1) away to neighbours Sweden will no doubt be on your list.
One team that will be in Qatar this winter are North Macedonia and they should win comfortably in Gibraltar. They’re as short as 1/10 to win but with a little bit of imagination we can get almoist even money by taking them to be winning at half-time and full-time as well as Over 2.5 goals in the game.
